What to Know

Critics Consensus

A bittersweet rom-com that occasionally waffles as much as its characters in how mature it wants to be, The Threesome balances out into a sweetly shaggy film with standout performances from Zoey Deutch and Ruby Cruz.

This is an all too rare romcom that delivers on every level. If you’re looking for well-drawn characters caught up in an outlandish situation that generates plenty of laughter and sentiment, look no further. Oh, and it’s sexy too. Go to Full Review

Too melodramatic to be a fun romantic comedy; too lacking in scope to be a thoughtful generational study. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

...The Threesome is, for much of its nearly two-hour runtime, a charming and endearing film, a worthy heir to the sensual comedies of the 80s, the screwball comedies of the 30s and 40s, and the best sitcoms of the 90s. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

The lack of solid character development and the decision to veer towards a more conservative, almost political, perspective in order to avoid offending or straying from commercial standards, undermines its seriousness...[Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Carolyn F Sep 16 A little crazy at first, but it came together in a heartwarming way at the end. See more Kelvin G Sep 12 The trailer pitched an interesting premise but the execution was very uneven. The humor definitely wasn't there as much as you would have though and some of the casting felt wasted. I think the movie couldn't fully decide what it wanted to be. Did a solid job of not being an exactly by the numbers rom com. See more Don H Sep 11 It's a shame this is on limited release. It's fantastic! The writing is superb and the acting is absolutely marvelous. See more Mr. Hollywood Sep 11 Worst thing a movie could be is boring. This was boring. Im not criticizing the story just the journey and the journey wasnt fun. Skip See more Donna Sep 10 Funny, poignant, great characters. Very surprisingly sweet movie. See more Julie Sep 10 Every man's fantasy of a threesome with two hot women becomes his worst nightmare when they both turn up pregnant. The story definitely kept you guessing how this was going to end. The ending turned out to be surprising but satisfying, with a lot of laughs along the way. Cute, funny movie with good performances by all. See more Read all reviews
